Big-Time Communications for Small-to-Medium Businesses

With today's economy and demanding public needs, businesses are under pressure to perform everyday at their highest levels to win and retain their customers. To meet these pressures, employees need better tools for increased productivity.

NEC products and services are designed to target the small-to-medium business (SMB) needs and still maintain a business' basic need to lower costs. Every company has unique services and products; to meet the unique challenges that grow from this diversity, communications systems must be flexible enough to meet the needs these services and products require. With the NEC Private Branch eXchange (PBX) systems, hybrid systems and related applications, today's SMBs can have all of their communication and networking needs met through one vendor: NEC.

Every business knows the value of each encounter with a new or current customer or supplier, and with the smaller scale of today's SMB, each of these contacts is vital to competing in a global economy. NEC solutions that provide customized call routing, automated department access, live and voice mail backup, call coverage and after hours notification are powerful weapons in attracting and retaining valuable customers and key partners.

Many small- and medium-sized businesses are comprised of units housed in different locations. Providing both seamless communications and access to advanced productivity tools throughout the organization without wasteful duplication of investments is key to survival and growth. NEC's PBX-based SMB Solutions provide networking capabilities to allow for a single centralized voice mail system for call coverage throughout the organization as well as private networking to enhance effective team operations and connectivity between systems over a converged backbone. These capabilities are provided without large dedicated investments or high re-occurring expenses.

The versatility of the NEC products provides the flexibility to meet all the needs of small and medium businesses and protects the company's investment with modular expansion and technology updates as the business grows
